[REQUIRED] Test case

When i try to upload my ipa using a specific appid i get an error although the appid exists I run the following command firebase appdistribution:distribute --app "1:696982949839:ios:c587f53961ad2c1df64cba" --release-notes 'test 1' --testers '[e-mail]' Runner.ipa --debug and i get Error: App Distribution could not find your app 1:696982949839:ios:c587f53961ad2c1df64cba. Make sure to onboard your app by pressing the "Get started" button on the App Distribution page in the Firebase console: https://console.firebase.google.com/project/_/appdistribution

As you can see i run a firebase apps:list and i get my 2 apps. Then i run firebase appdistribution:distribute with the exactly same appid for my ios app and i get the error. The android app uploads just fine.

[REQUIRED] Expected behavior

[REQUIRED] Actual behavior

ipa should isn’t uploaded to the firebase distribution and i get errors firebase-debug.log

For those that are facing this problem, a reminder: You need to press the “Get started” button twice (once for android and another time for iOS). I’ve spent a lot of time investigating this problem (because I did once for one platform) and figure out that I needed to do again for the other one … terrible “UX” and for sure it needs improvements to avoid such silly error

@ChristopherDrum I’m the PM of App Distribution. Enabling from the CLI is something on our roadmap and we want to add this. There are a few considerations we need to take into account that add a bit of complexity. I totally hear you that this would make initial onboarding a lot more seamless. I don’t have a timeline to share right now, but this is an improvement we will be making.
